Head table background help needed!
Amanda in Style and Décor, on February 7, 2015 at 3:33 PM

We have booked a venue with tons of windows. For the head table, it only makes sense to place it in front of the windows. I don't want a backdrop as it looks awful in front of the large windows. I do,...

Amanda in Wedding Attire, on January 17, 2016 at 5:31 PM

We wanted to purchase a photo album from our photographer but $700 was just too hard to swallow :/ we did get a massive canvas print we've hung prominently. But we'd also like to do a book of...

Alternate ideas to seating chart/escort cards
Amanda in Etiquette and Advice, on August 27, 2015 at 3:43 PM

My fh HATES both. He thinks a chart will have our guests all crowded around it, hunting themselves down and will be a major pain. With escort cards, he doesn't like how the guests can chose which seat...

Are rehearsal dinners 100% necessary?!
Amanda in Etiquette and Advice, on August 19, 2015 at 2:03 PM

Like so so many of you, fh and I are footing the entire bill for this wedding. We are WAY over budget (of course) and our funds are tight. Our rehearsal is scheduled for 5 pm and obviously we have to...
